Even the Rambam didn't hold of it if you were roasting it or eating it raw. (And, no, the Rambam didn't live in Yemen.)

This question really needs some editing. First, the term requires definition. It is jargon without it. Second, the Yemenite requirement comes from the Rambam, so the question doesn't hold on its own. Third, famous is way too vague. Almost opinion based. Especially when discussing Achronim. Fourth a link which gives some background would be really helpful. Here is one: chayas.com/kosherissues.htm

The Sephardim who performed chalita don't do it anymore based on scientific basis. The machloket for hundreds of years was wether chalita was a requirement for kashering meat or it did the opposite and rendered it non-kosher. Science shows that chalita makes it impossible to ever kasher the meat. So to answer your question, nobody nowadays practices chalita
